Student leaders of organizations that were funded through the multicultural fee hosted a public town hall in Allen Auditorium Monday night to discuss the defunding of their organizations. 

On April 3, the Legion of Black Collegians, the Asian American Association, the Association of Latin American Students, Four Front and the Queer Liberation Front met with Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Angela King Taylor and other university officials who told them they would no longer receive funding from the multicultural student fee starting July 2026. Filling In The Space, an MSA auxiliary dedicated to promoting the involvement of minority students in major Mizzou programs, was informed that it would no longer be allowed to receive funding from MSA.

Seats at the town hall filled immediately; students also lined the walls of the auditorium. Hundreds more watched across campus through a livestream that was hosted on both the ALAS and LBC Instagram accounts. 

In an interview with The Maneater, LBC President Amaya Morgan highlighted the increase in community support she’s seen.

“In August it was very much like ‘LBC versus the world,’” Morgan said. “We had our backs obviously, but did anybody else have our back? Now, it's a real communal effort and I think it's taught me a lot about the community (and) community organizing.”
